          @gangrif MoErgo Glove80, but a lot of keyboards support custom firmware!

              @molly0xfff Thanks! I've got the Kinesis freestyle edge. and like it. And it's got programmable firmware/macros. so it's possible i could make this happen. I'm just always curious about a good keyboard. 😉

                    @molly0xfff @gangrif https://docs.qmk.fm/features/caps_word, I presume? If I can map this to shift-capslock on my Keychron I will be SO HAPPY.

                      @molly0xfff@hachyderm.io what would one do with such a function? So One Can Type Like This?

                      Edit: I see. Now that I read it, it makes a lot of sense and I think I need to go turn this...

                                    @molly0xfff will never find a use for caps lock that's as good as a backspace key tbh

                                    the regular backspace is too far away

                                      @clarfonthey ten years ago i switched to keyboards that put backspace at the thumb and i’ve never looked back. capslock i’ve usually mapped to escape, although that’s the standard config for my new keyboard

                                        @molly0xfff that's fair; the calculus is totally different if you allow moving keys wherever

                                        pinky backspace is a decent compromise tbh

                                          you cannot believe the contortion required to do that 2-handed with just my finger tips and pinky solidly planted on the SHIFT key the whole time. It's like Guitar Hero but for typing.
